Mm... This is really strange I don't have that service and there is no ib* output in 'ifconfig -a' or 'Infinband' in 'lspci' Which makes me believe that I don't have such a network. I also checked on an identical computer on the same network with the same results.
What's strange is that these messages didn't use to show up and they don't show up on that identical computer; only on mine. Even though both computers have the same hardware, openMPI version and on the same network. I guess I can safely ignore these warnings and run on Ethernet, but it would be nice to know what happened there, in case anybody has an idea.
